I'm letting everyone know that I'm going to Texas this summer. I'm leaving this Saturday night and I have no specific return date. I'm coming back before fall semester begins, and that's all I know. I'm going to be staying with my boyfriend Poof and I'l probably be working at an IHOP in the area; we go there every time I'm visiting and I already know everyone and the manager adores me and so I'm pretty much gauranteed a job. I'll be working for as long as I'm there, so I wouldn't count on coming back to New Orleans for little visits unless it's really important. I'm staying there this summer for several reasons. I think it'll be nice to get away from the city for a little while. I want to spend as much time with Poof as I can because I know that once school starts again I will go back to only seeing him once a month or so. I'm going to be looking at colleges while I'm there because Loyola does not have many education courses anymore. Plus if I get certified out there it'll be easy to get a teaching job in Texas and Texas treats its teachers better and the pay over time is significantly more than if I were to teach in Louisiana. A really big reason too is that I really like Poof. I really like him to the point to where I want to see what it's like to live with him full time. If it works out as well as I believe it's going to, I have high hopes of him and I being together permenantly. He is a spectacular guy and we are wonderful together; both he and I can see potential for a long term, possibly life-long relationship. I haven't said much about it because it's a work in progress. You could also say that about my faith. But believe me, just because I don't talk about it much certainly doesn't mean that nothing's happening. Things are falling into place in my life, slowly but surely. But hey, they say it's the journey that's important, right?
